I'm back!
This time I'm trying to balance military units with genetics.
Now I have MY OWN big damn fire cat! And a big damn hedgehog-bear!
(And also a couple of flying leeches, even if they always seem to perform better when the enemy uses them: anyway, it may be my own bias, or I can't use them well... EDIT: probably this is the same bug pointed out by kiddage456js some days ago. If it is by design, it's unfair, I paid for Blood Sirens, not for lesser Needles!).
Oh, HOW I would like to put a leash on the cat so it would not run fast past my shield-bearers and right into the Red Pool! so I'm forced to click Retreat even if I'd like to move a little further - but I suppose this IS the point of this game...
The downside to this new strategy is that I have less money than in the previous runs (but more Reputation) and less tech improvements... how long will I last?
EDIT: I'm at Day 43 and I'm still alive! Hooray! What now? How I can I get the giant lizard I see in the trailer? (EDIT: now I see that there are Achievements! One of them says "Spawn the indestructible reptile, somehow", so it's something the player must discover on their own. Well, for now I can say that researching Genetics Level = 10 13 does nothing, maybe some extra levels are necessary, or it is something else, or a combo).
Meanwhile, the waves become stronger and stronger...
